Yes, Its Possible to turbo the 97 altima. If you do a lil research you can find some sites that provide a already bulit turbo kit. I have only found a stage one kit so far,Which included a t3\t4 turbo, and that cosats about $2,500 - $4,000 ... so it all depends on what u want

Sounds good but would there be any detrimental effects on the engine it'self?

I suggest a supercharger, personally.

less electronics to control, less chance of terrible abuse to your twin cam engine, better horsepower and better PSI.

hm. Yea since I plan on gifting my altima to my little brother when I get my next car engine wear due to turbo is a prime concern. A supercharger does seem more reasonable. I'll definately have to take it into consideration.

Yes it is possible to turbo it. CHeck out turbonetics! You can find one for about 3.5-4k$(kit). The engine is DOHC and very easy to turbo if you have the money to do it.
